Surrogate {COMPLETED}

Chapter four

******************

Already dressed for work, I locked the door and walked out to get a ride because I want to be a bit earlier than normal day just because I want to meet with Dora since she always leave immediately after her shift is over which it's almost time for her shift to be over

I arrived shortly after at work which luckily enough Dora is still around cleaning up the counter before the night shift begins which I quickly walked up to her with smile on my face

"Hey Lilly welcome" she said smiling

"Thank you dear" I replied "can you give me some of your time please, if you don't mind?" I asked

"Of course not, I don't mind dear" she said, keeping the hand towel in her hand "come let's go to the back yard, I think it's safer for us to talk there freely" which I nodded and followed her to the back yard. She turned and faced me when we were at the back "So what is it dear? tell me am all ears"she said giving me all her attention

"Well I just want to ask you about someone" I said playing with my hand not knowing how to open up to her

"Alright. I just hope you're not in trouble or any kind problem" she asked concerned

"Don't worry, just wanted to ask if you know any Mr. Charlie" I said hoping she knows him

"Yes I do. But I don't know which of the Mr.Charlie your talking about, since it's not only one Mr Charlie I know"

"Oh okay. It's the one I heard his wife is looking for a surrogate mother"

"Oh you mean Mrs Vivian, Mr Charlie Ampofo's wife. I know them but why did you ask?" Dora said looking at me confused

"Well am just looking for extra job which I heard she's looking for new house maids" I lied to her not wanting her to find out about what am about to do

"But have not heard of that, all I know is that she's looking for a surrogate mother" Dora said trying to recall if she had heard anything of such which I quickly speaks up

"Maybe if you know of her address that will helps me alot" I voice out bring her back from her thought

"Well she leaves in Labone Estate house number 4. The mansion with white and black colour paint. It's the most magnificent house there, it looks different from the other houses so you can identify it easily" she answered

"Thank you so much, that means alot to me"

"Mention not dear. I have to be going, see you tomorrow" with that she left. One thing I like about Dora is that she's not the kind of person that talked too much or meddle in others affairs, she always mind her business but talks only when you ask her a question or talked to her, which she will tell you the answer without bothered asking you the reason or try to know more.I walk back inside the bar since it's already time for customers to start coming and some have been coming one after the other.

I sat behind the counter taking orders from customers which I finish serving table four when he came in, I stand there looking at him like a fool forgotten I was attending to the customers. The Manager came out of nowhere and shouted my name seeing I was just standing like a statue

"What the hell do you think you're doing standing like a statue? don't you have customers to attend to?" He shouted which brought me back from my mini dream land

"Am sorry sir" I said walking back to the counter to sit when I saw the manager talking to him which surprised me because this is my first time seeing him here.

Well he might be an important guest if not the manager wouldn't have come down just to welcome a customer unless there's problem which I planned to find out from the manager who the man is when he started walking towards the counter
